I contacted ebay customer support directly with my concern that this moron is making the old "thujone will get you stoned just like THC/marijuana crap."I doubt they will do anything. Ebay sucks.

If you don't like anise at all, you're not likely to care for any decent absinthe, as absinthe is an anise flavored drink. It's kind of like asking if there are any good beers that don't taste like hops or malt.----Hiram

...and a moron from the USA. Notice how he/she/it does not come out and claim this is an "absinthe kit" but colors their ad green and the selection of herbs being sold...http://cgi.ebay.com/...1QQcmdZViewItem

Well, with the Gert you can make something that, while not absinthe, is better than the soaks and for that matter, some of what tries to pass itself off as absinthe. I was suprised to see it on the shelf in a local brewers supply place.

What's even more fun is to contact the Ebay seller and tell them what they are selling is craptacular and not even remotely close to real absinthe.

License means I decide what is right and wrong and I do whatever I want to do, whenever I want to do it, because I have the ability to. Freedom is knowing the difference between right and wrong and, thus, choosing to do the right thing because it is what I should do.

The second and third idiots appear to be the same vendor trying different marketing strategies.

idiot #5 : I couldn't resist including this specimen that is willing to pay $26.00 for an empty bottle of KOS. Where were the idiots when I was selling empty bottles, besides on my side of the computer screen?

It is also presently legal to import, for personal use and consumption...

add the ABSINTH ESSENCE to ... milk

I wonder where they ripped off all the little wine and food gifs...

But

Why drink absinth if you're not going to get drunk? Oh, that's right to add it to your milk.

Because it's much cheaper than buying a real bottle of KOS and pouring the contents down the drain?

I've always thought that Demeter would do well to do an absinthe scent. They specialize in making uncanny representations of everyday scents, including foods (angel food cake), drinks (gin and tonic), every day objects (library books), the outdoors (dirt), etc. A lot of their stuff is quite quirky (i.e. who really wants to smell like glue or dust or lettuce?!?), but some of it is quite good. I personally love their Gin&Tonic scent.

Thanks for the link Doc! Quite an ecelctic lineup they have there and reasonable prices as well. This one sounds wonderful, Thunderstorm . I couldn't find any Absinthe scents, but the Martini and Gin and Tonic would be nice too.

I had my taste buds amputated many years ago after an unfortunate toothbrush accident, any reviews or opinions I give are suspect and should be viewed as utterly useless.
